    Lack of foreign participants particularly in WD category. Last year, powerhouse CHN almost swept all titles except WS. Defending champion and home fave Saina Nehwal will be challenged by reigning WC Carolina Marin and her junior PV Sindhu. Another local hero, world #4 Srikanth Kidambi is expected to bag his homeground GPG title when he lost to Xue Song in 2014 final. Boe/Mogensen is the frontrunner of this GPG, string of dark horses who possibly upset them are Ivanov/Sozonov, Goh/Tan and Conrad/Kolding.

    Live TV will be broadcasted on Saturday and Sunday for semi and finale.

    Does anybody else think it's a little suspicious that 4 of the best pairs on paper in MD are drawn against each other in the first round? :confused:

    MAS Khim Wah Lim
    MAS Yao Han Ow
    v
    RUS Vladimir Ivanov [4]
    RUS Ivan Sozonov


    ENG Andrew Ellis
    ENG Peter Mills
    v
    DEN Mads Conrad-Petersen [2]
    DEN Mads Pieler Kolding



    ...considering that the rest of the draw is made up predominantly by Indian nobodies. (on the world stage)

    Too bad one of them will be axed at very first round, the draw is pretty unbalanced.

    DAY-2 order of play (09.00am local time, 6 courts) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=26C69424-0F56-4C3A-A382-C37ABF0090FF

    MS will be played twice, R/64 at morning session and R/32 later on the evening. Three first round intriguing MD ties to follow :

    - Lim KW/Ow YH (MAS) v Ivanov/Sozonov (RUS)
    - Goh VS/Tan WK (MAS) v Attri/Reddy (IND)
    - Ellis/Mills (ENG) v Conrad/Kolding (DEN)

    Valadimir Ivanov is really busy player as he's taking part in three disciplines, MS, MD and XD.

    Too bad that the good pairs have to meet in the very first round itself..

    It's imbalanced.

    By the way, who decides on this draw..? Is it the respective Badminton Association, or by BWF.. ?

    In the second round, Srikanth escaped by a whisker against kian ming tan of malaysia. It seems like srikanth did not learn yet from his mistakes in the past. He had a comfortable lead but he left it easily. This kian ming tan is also a good player. He matched the pace of srikanth throughout the match.

    One interesting fact i found about this kian ming tan is that he met srikanth in 2014 as well in the same second round of India GPG and also had the same first round opponent like that of this year. What a coincidence!.

    it should be BWF. I haven't looked it up but the process should be described somewhere in the documents.

    Random draws (apart from the seeds), are not necessarily balanced. The more you try to 'balance' a draw, the more it becomes subject to 'bias'.

    Marin came back from 10-14 in G2 and has a big lead in G3

    QUARTERFINALS (02.00pm local time, 3 courts) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...C69424-0F56-4C3A-A382-C37ABF0090FF&d=20150123

    As expected, the faves have continued their good run here to book last eight spot. MS top-seed, Srikanth looked shaky at early rounds, pushed extra effort by Malaysian players, Tan KM and Zulkarnain. Today he will take on another MAS shuttler, Chong Wei Feng. However, host IND has assured three semifinal berths, MS, WS and WD.
